net: add dedicated kmem_cache for typical/small skb->head

net: add dedicated kmem_cache for typical/small skb->head

Recent removal of ksize() in alloc_skb() increased
performance because we no longer read
the associated struct page.

We have an equivalent cost at kfree_skb() time.

kfree(skb->head) has to access a struct page,
often cold in cpu caches to get the owning
struct kmem_cache.

Considering that many allocations are small (at least for TCP ones)
we can have our own kmem_cache to avoid the cache line miss.

This also saves memory because these small heads
are no longer padded to 1024 bytes.

CONFIG_SLUB=y
$ grep skbuff_small_head /proc/slabinfo
skbuff_small_head   2907   2907    640   51    8 : tunables    0    0    0 : slabdata     57     57      0

CONFIG_SLAB=y
$ grep skbuff_small_head /proc/slabinfo
skbuff_small_head    607    624    640    6    1 : tunables   54   27    8 : slabdata    104    104      5

Notes:

- After Kees Cook patches and this one, we might
  be able to revert commit
  dbae2b062824 ("net: skb: introduce and use a single page frag cache")
  because GRO_MAX_HEAD is also small.

- This patch is a NOP for CONFIG_SLOB=y builds.
